After a record breaking September that totaled 13.63 inches of rain for the month, a record single day rainfall total of 6.64 inches on from September 13 to September 14, December 9th with precip of nearly an inch and a half (1.47") pushed us into the second wettest year on record. The wettest year on record was set in 1983 with 49.35 inches. So far this year (our 2nd wettest year) we have 47.11. You have to think with 3 weeks in December still left that number likely will increase.
